The Hare baronetcy, of Stow Bardolph in the County of Norfolk, was created in the Baronetage of England on 23 July 1641 for Ralph Hare, Member of Parliament for Norfolk and King's Lynn. He was the great-grandson of Sir Nicholas Hare, Speaker of the House of Commons from 1539 to 1540, who purchased the Stow Bardolph estate in 1553.
